Isabelle is a pretty average14 year old who has green eyes that change to blue at moments and long brown hair with blonde highlights. She has a bubbly personality with a love for anything pink of sparkly. Yes, she is very much a girly girl at heart. She is a cheerleader who is not really in the popular crowd, but she has friends who really like her and she is always friendly to everyone. A bit shy at times more than not, but once you know her she will come out of her shell pretty quick.

Isabelle's parents had divorced when she was a few months old so she lived with her mom and her older brother, but he was in a good college so he doesn't really matter in the move. Isabelle's mom, Theresa, is a councilor who recently wanted to pursue a new company, so she got a new job working for the North Carolina State Government. They did have a dog who would be coming, a tan Pomeranian named Ella, who probably has more clothes than most people.

Isabelle's POV

Yay! A new move to a new state I'm so excited! A fresh start new friends. New guys, new friends, new everything. I wonder what all North Carolina has to offer? Hmm wouldn't it be funny if we move next to the Grier"s? Ha as if.

Moving day was here and the 6 hour drive was pretty boring. I was scrolling on Instagram when I saw a picture on Hayes Grier's account saying "finally home" with Nash tagged in it. I thought wow that is interesting.

At about 7:00 PM we arrived at her new house. Boxes were everywhere in the moving truck just pulled in after us. My mom and I directed where the boxes and furniture were to go and after that it was about 10:30 PM, and we went to bed with thoughts of all the unpacking we'd have to do the next day.

Morning came faster than I expected and by the time I woke up it was 9 PM and had already unpacked 10 boxes.

I stopped for a quick breakfast of a granola bar and my mom and I were unpacking yet again until noon. By 9:00 PM we are done packing and we were sitting in our new living room talking about what our new lives would be like in North Carolina.

My mom hadn't told me where I would be going to school so I felt this was an appropriate time to ask.

She replied, "Davidson Day".

That name, it sounded so familiar.

I said, "that's great! Did they say when cheer tryouts would be?"

"Yes, next week on Wednesday", she said.

GREAT!! Ahh I'm so pumped! So ready for the season again!

My mom had excused herself to go to bed after that. She had to start working Monday. 2 days from now.

I stayed up for a while on my phone and soon went to bed after that.

We woke up bright and early that morning to go to the grocery store and buy food. Chinese takeout wasn't going to last us very long.

I threw on a pair of hot pink shorts and a black T-shirt with my monogram on it and a pair of pink sparkly sandals. I usually dress up better than this, but hey, I'm pretty tired here.

After buying many many kitchen essentials and food we were finally on our way back to the new house. I put it all away and we plopped on the couch exhaustedly.

Thats when we heard a knock on the door.
